⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Engine-oil leakage around the tube
• Tube cracking or corrosion
• Dipstick does not seat correctly
• Incorrect oil-level reading from a bent tube
• Broken mounting bracket

🛠️ Service Notes

• The tube sets the height at which the dipstick reads, so fit the tube specified for your engine and make sure it is fully home in its seat
• Renew the O-ring or seal at the base and check the bore is clear of debris before fitting; a leaking base seal both weeps oil and lets air in
• Refit any bracket or clip that supports the tube so vibration cannot work the joint loose or chafe the tube against something
• Check the dipstick slides in and out freely, seats properly, and that the seal in its handle is sound
• Run the engine, stop it and let it stand, then confirm the level reads consistently and that the base of the tube is dry
